Whether you are in a relationship, or seeking one, do you know what a healthy relationship looks like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being showered with attention and affection by someone you just met is both flattering and exciting. But have you really taken the time to get to know him before taking the relationship to the next level?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online dating is an increasingly popular way to find a soulmate. What should you be aware of? And when that big day comes for you to finally meet the person you have been connecting with for months, what do you need to be mindful of?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are 3 love and relationship tips all women need to know.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Love_Doesnt_Hurt\"><\/span>1.  Love Doesn\u2019t Hurt.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Healthy relationships make you feel good about yourself.&nbsp; It\u2019s not always immediately clear if a relationship is unhealthy or abusive. Learn to recognise the signs. Some signs include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your partner tries to control where you go and who you see; and gets angry when you don\u2019t do as he says.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He harms or threatens to harm you or the people you love.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He frequently puts you down, and blames you for the problems in your relationship.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>He pushes, hits, makes you have sex or do things you don\u2019t want to do.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You deserve to be safe in your relationship. Always remember that physical, emotional or verbal abuse is not your fault or acceptable. Sexual activity without consent is considered rape or sexual assault. Consent means agreeing to be sexual with someone, and letting the person know that sex is wanted. No means no!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Love Tips:<\/em><br><em>Think through what you want in a relationship. A few must-haves in a healthy relationship are trust, respect, honesty and support. You deserve all these and more!<\/em><\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Love_Doesnt_Manipulate\"><\/span>2.  Love Doesn\u2019t Manipulate.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You may find being away from home and the support of family and loved ones lonely and isolating. Some turn to online dating to find love and companionship. Some may fall quickly for someone that showers them with attention, online or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadly many women, including foreign domestic workers, fall prey to love scams. Scammers may seek out foreign domestic workers in a number of ways. For instance, by befriending workers on their day off and by pretending to look for romantic partners online with fake profiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is always wise to find out more about the person you just met, before you trust them with your finances and\/or engage in sexual activity. People may not always be who they appear or claim to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are not comfortable to engage with someone further emotionally and\/or ready to be involved with them sexually always know you can say no and walk away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Love Tips:<\/em><br><em>Carefully consider what you want in a partner. Don\u2019t settle out of loneliness or peer pressure.&nbsp; Be honest with yourself. Trust your instinct and gut feelings. Speak with a trusted friend or family member who can give you wise support and advice.<\/em><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Love_Empowers\"><\/span>3.  Love Empowers.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A healthy and fulfilling relationship goes beyond physical attraction and saying \u201cI Love You\u201d. Both parties in a relationship need to put in effort to communicate, discuss aspirations and set life goals together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being involved in a sexual relationship is not necessarily the same as being in a loving relationship. True love inspires you to commit to your partner and plan ahead. One key discussion concerns planning to have a family. If both you and your partner want to have a baby, have an honest conversation about the best possible timeframe. If you and your partner are not ready to be parents, use contraception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>Love Tip:<\/em><br><em>There are a number of contraceptive methods available.
